Pretty sure Joe will tell you to use anything which is both water & heat resistant. Sealant, tapes, whatever. Should do well. Not that this thing see daily 500kg of pressure or anything, although in your case I could be wrong lolll

Like I said before, be careful of (some) of the 3M products. Some of their adhesive are chemically activated (true bonding) and often only applicable for industrial use. If not removed before 72hrs you can kiss it goodbye, it's permanent. Just keep this in mind!

Ducktail group buy list:
To sign up copy and paste the latest list and add your name at the bottom
for clarification these are for Boxster up to 2002, 03 and newer are different

1 - NJBoxster2000
2 - rfuerst911sc
3 - Turn3 Autosport
4 - Van914
5 - Edreamsz
6 - Thumper

Here's the updated list. Five more to sign up and the price drops to $306.

My plan for the install is the factory plastic pins and a strip of two sided tape along the back edge between the ducktail and the mountng bracket/plate. With the extra size of this piece there will be some buffeting and I'm not sure the three pins would hold it steady. Haven't been able to road test as my car is still in the shop.

The parts will be shiny black gel coat, ready to use as is or a light sanding to prepare for paint. Yes the OEM cap is removed and this piece installs in its place.
